Todd, I just made the prints.

If you don't look at them side by side, the Eclipse looks great, just
like the EAM and Epson Watercolor. 
When you put all three side by side, Its an odd sight. The eclipse paper
is so much whiter than the Epson papers, it looks like they have the
same deep black. When you look closely, the Epson Watercolor and
Archival are the tiniest bit blacker, but the papers are ivory in
comparison to Eclipse, so the Eclipse looks like a nicer print. 

I guess you pays your money and takes your choice!

Torchon paper has good blacks, but I'm now experiencing an unacceptable
scuffing with this paper. You have to handle it VERY carefully, the big
texture highs and lows tend to rub off when you shuffle prints.

I guess there is no such thing as an ideal paper.
